Mr. Manmohan Singh, the Prime Minister of India disrespects Democracy
Satyameva Jayate: T. R. Baalu’s issue is rocking both houses of parliament for the last few days. I am not going to the merits or demerits of the politically surcharged situations. Then, ‘what prompts me to refer this issue?’ you may ask. When the opposition members in the Rajya Sabha raised the question about Baalu’s issue yesterday, it was reported that when Petroleum Minister Murli Deora rose from his seat to answer the allegations in the Rajya Sabha, the Prime Minister Mr.Manmohan Singh who was presesnt since then, rose from his seat at the same time and left the house immediately! I am really pained that this act of our gentleman Prime Minister is disrespect to the democracy and to the public at large. But the same Prime Minister had told to the Press afterwards that his office has done ‘nothing unusual’ on the T.R.Baalu issue for it to stoke a controversy.
